Critic Reviews

“Silver Universe: Views on Active Living takes the reader on a journey through recent social changes in Western society. No one better than the editors, Laura Dryjanska and Roberto Giua, two key members of the European Network on Intergenerational Family Solidarity (INTERFASOL), can emphasize how meaningful relationships, including care and support between generations, are essential for an active life.”
